Chorus:
FC
Daniel, Daniel and the sacred harp,
BbF
Dancing through the clover.
BbAm
Daniel, Daniel would you mind,
C7F
If I look it over.
Verse:
FBbC7F
I heard of this famous harp years ago back in my home town
BbCDm
But I sure never thought old Daniel be the one to come and bring it around
FCBbF
Tell me Daniel how the harp came into your posession.
CBbF
Are you one of the chosen few who will march in the procession?
BbAm
and Daniel said:
FCFC
The sacred harp was handed down, from father unto son,
BbAmGmC7
And me not being related, I could never be the one.
FCFC
So I saved up all my silver, and took it to a man,
BbAmGmF
Who said he could deliver the harp, straight into my hand.
DmG
Three years I waited patiently,
CBb
'Till he returned with the harp from the sea of Galilee.
DmG
He said there is one more thing I must ask,
CBb
But not of personal greed.
AmGm
But I wouldn't listen I just grabbed the harp,
C7F
And said take what you may need.
FBbCF
Now Daniel looked quite satisfied, and the harp it seemed to glow.
BbCDm
But the price that Daniel had really paid, he did not even know.
FC7
Back to his brother he took his troubled mind.
BbF
And he said dear brother I'm in a bind.
C7
But the brother would not hear his tale,
BbF
he said Old Daniel's gonna land in jail.
FC
So to his father Daniel did run,
FC
And he said oh father what have I done.
BbAmGm
His father said son you've given in, you know you won your harp,
F
But you lost in sin.
DmG
Then Daniel took the harp and went high on the hill,
CBb
And he blew across the meadow like a whippoorwhill.
DmG
He played out his heart just the time to pass,
CBbF
But as he looked to the ground, he noticed no shadow did he cast.
